Our Ward had a Primary Program today for our Sacrament Meeting. All of the little kids from ages 5 to 11 went up in front of the whole congregation and presented a little program. The Theme for the whole program was “My Eternal Family”.

The little kids are so cute when they walk up to the “big” microphone and say their little memorized sentence or two. They also sing several songs that tie all of the little talks together nicely. My two daughters did a really good job. They had their parts memorized and were able to talk loudly and distinctly into the microphone. I was very proud of their participation in the program.

There were a couple of songs that they sang, that I had never heard before. I tried to find them in the Primary Song Book but they weren’t there. I asked my wife and found them in the list of music found in “The Friend” magazine.  The two songs that I didn’t recognize were, “The Family is of God” and “My Eternal Family”.

The whole program reminded me of a number of things that our family still needs to focus on.  It is hard not to smile while watching these little children speak and sing.

I am very excited (excuse me while I bounce up and down excitedly in my chair while typing) to announce that I am starting a new blog/website called ldsfamily.net

I came across a foundation called the “More Good Foundation“. They are an organization that promotes positive LDS content on the internet. I became very interested when I saw this blog post by LDS Media Talk that wrote about adopting a website and providing content. I decided to check it out so I sent in an inquiry about the program. I was emailed back very quickly and was offered a chance to participate. They seemed very willing to give me a chance to help once they saw that I have a Blog, Personal Web page, YouTube Channel, developed a site for a non-profit organization called Charity Anywhere Foundation and a facebook page. We discussed the types of things I have been posting and how I could promote positive Mormon content on the internet. We came up with a website called simply, LDSFamily. I will be posting things about me, and my family. The posts will be about my everyday life, stuff that happens in our family, things I have been thinking about. I’ll post stuff about the Mormon church, Mormon beliefs, Mormon standards, Mormon living. I’ll talk about what it is like to have an LDS Family. You know, an LDS family is like any other family. We have the same struggles, the same time constraints, the same issues with children, teachers, work etc. I just hope that I can create content that people will be interesting in reading and following. Hopefully it will create positive content that will be a tool people can use to learn more about the Mormon church.
